The man behind the Alexander Corporation is Darius Alexander.
He is a well known man, both for his supply of weapons to governments
around the world and also for his status as one of Europe's most
eligible bachelors. His playboy life began in England where he was
sent by his rich parents for study. He mingled with the wealthy
and influential and gained an appetite for the public eye. The
Alexander family were rich in their own right, but after Darius took
control in 1993 at the age of 28, he managed to project the company's
profits into stellar territory. He became a billionaire in 1998
and a multibillionaire the following year, mostly in part because of
contracts with the governments of Azambia and Chile.

Alexander has come under public pressure from anti-war activities and
has been labelled a murderer, although he has managed to keep his
reputation in tact for the most part. There have been some
attempts on his life, as well as attacks on the Alexander Corporation in
Macedonia and Albania; but Alexander has so far remained relatively
untouched by the attacks or criticism.

There are rumours that the Alexander Corporation is involved with the
weapon design and production for numerous super villains around the
world, although Alexander publicly denounces this and points to his
company's assistance with various super hero groups and individuals
around the world, including a former contract to supply the French
superhero team, Trinity, with weapons. This contract with Trinity
led to a very public argument between Alexander Corporation, Trinity,
the French Government and the super hero Armstrong of L'Estrie
Industries.

Personality

Darius Alexander is a public figure who is well aware of his
public profile and will protect it at any cost. He is a calm and
strategic man, but does not appear manipulative or egocentric, mostly
due to his extremely persuasive and smooth social skills. He was
educated at Eton and has been linked to numerous high profile women
which has also helped make him one of the most desirable men in Europe,
and perhaps the world.

His business requires him to make hard choices at times, and he
approaches these carefully and with an eye on the end result.
While he is an excellent public relations man, Alexander is not afraid
to make decisions that may adversely impact on his reputation - however,
these decisions are accompanied by ruthless damage control to limit any
negative effect. The Alexander Corporation is considered a rival
of both L'Estrie Industries and Unger Munitions, and Alexander has been
both a target and instigator of numerous attempts at industrial
sabotage.

Quote

"People have long made the mistake of blaming the craftsman for a
soldier's death on the other side of the world. It is the simple
thing to do, but we are not in a simple world. I can personally
assure each and every one you that the engineers at the Alexander
Corporation are tirelessly dedicated to designing arms which will reduce
the number of fatalities - on all sides - rather than increase them
through production faults and poor quality. In this case, the arms
that we produce truly can bring about peace."

Powers

Darius Alexander possesses no uberhuman abilities, but does head
up a multinational arms manufacturing corporation and is a billionaire
in his own right.
